Visit the national parks nestled between Kenya’s coastal town Mombasa and its capital Nairobi and discover lots of wildlife at relatively small distances!
You’ll start your adventure at the world-famous Amboseli National Park. Huge herds of elephants rule this smaller but beautiful park in front of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak (great pics guaranteed!). On the wide savannahs of Tsavo West National Park you’ll see the gentle giants once more, together with the rest of the Big Five and many other famous African animals. Your next stop takes you to the green mountain range of Taita Hills, where bush elephants roam, and to the smaller but equally impressive Lumo Conservancy which offers everything you’d want from a safari – including night game drives!
